Stephen Hawking, a world famous British physicist, also wrote a children’s book with his daughter. Hawking said the book would be “a bit like Harry Potter” but without the magic. “It explains the wonders of the universe(宇宙),” said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong over 10 years ago.
Hawking, is probably the world’s most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning (and the end) of the universe. “My goal is simple,” Hawking once said. “It is to completely understand the universe, why it is as it is and why it is there at all.”
Hawking has a bad illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼). Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computer’s mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器).
“I have had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said. “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work.”
Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in theoretical physics(理论物理学).
71. In the first paragraph, the book that Stephen Hawking wrote is_____.

C. Both Hawking and Einstein are very famous D. Neither Hawking nor Einstein is famous
73. What does the underlined pronoun “it” stand for?
A. The goal. B. The magic. C. The universe. D. The book.

B. The illness keeps him from moving and talking.

To me, life without music would not be exciting. I realize that this is not true for everybody . Many people get along quite well without going to the concert, and listening to the record. But music plays an important part in everyone's life, whether he realizes it or not. Try to imagine, for example, what films or TV plays would be like without music. Would the feelings, the moving plots, and the greatest interests, be so exciting or dramatic? I'm not sureabout it.
Now, we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning-- the kind of music we hear in the concert hall. But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we discover them in our everyday life too--in the rhythm of the sea, the melody of a bird in the woods and so on. So music surely has meaning for everyone, in some way or other. And, of course, it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
It is well said, " Through music a child enters into a world of beauty, expresses himself from the heart, feels the joy of doing things alone, learns to take care of others, develops his mind and makes his body strong."
75. What is the text mainly about?
A. Children need music. B. Life without music.
C. The importance of music. D. The development of music.
76. What does the underlined word "melody" mean in the text?
A. Flying. B. Looking C. Singing D. Living
77. From the last paragraph, we learn that music___.
A. is very important, especially for childrenB. is very necessary for our everyday life
C. can make our life exciting and dramaticD. can make us enter into another beautiful world.
78. what's the meaning of music for those who work on playing or writing music?
A. They treat music as their lives B. They regard music as a part of their lives
C. They don't think music is important D. They think it's only their job.
C
A man called police in Shanghai and asked them to bring toilet paper for him. It has caused an online argument over the role of police and public .
9
The police officer wrote on his microblog on Monday that he had to help a caller who had diarrhea（腹泻） but did not carry toilet paper with him. Most netizens(网民) said that it was wrong for the caller to call up police for this reason.
The police said about half of their daily calls are looking for some information and help. All the calls are first connected to a call center and later sent to police stations that are the nearest to the persons who made the calls. Officers can't refuse when they receive the orders and should set off to the place immediately.
"The police have their own work. "a man named Wang Wei said. "They are not your home assistants to turn to when you run out of your baby’s toilet paper."
A woman named Li Lan agreed with Wang's idea. "If all police officers are sent to help those who need toilet paper, who will do something importantfor people and keep public order? "she asked.
But some of the netizens don’t mind police helping with little matters. A man named Sun Feng said when people are in annoying situation, they will always consider asking the police to help first. “ Although it might be annoying to make such a call, we really don't know whom to turn to."
Gu Jun, a professor at Shanghai University, said people should call the police only for special reasons. Too many unimportant calls aren't good for neither citizens nor the police.
79. Which is the right order for the police to work on after they receive calls?
（1）set off to the place immediately（2）connected to a call center（3）sent to the nearest station
A.①②③ B.②①③ C.②③① D.③①②
80. Who thought it was kind of necessary to ask the police for help in annoying situation?
A. Gu Jun B. Sun Feng C. Li Lan D. Wang Wei
81. How many people disagreed with what the caller had done?
A. One B .Two C. Three D. Four.
82. Which is the best title of the passage?
A. We Could Ask the Police to Pass Toilet Paper
B. We can't Ask the Police to Pass Toilet Paper
C. Why can't the Police Help to Pass Toilet Paper?
D. Can the Police Help to Pass Toilet Paper?

Being trapped in an elevator(电梯) can be one of the worst experiences of one's life. Some people who have such experiences may be afraid to use an elevator again. In fact, there are some useful tips to follow when people are in trouble with the elevator.
Firstly, take deep breaths and keep calm. Too much fear will add to your panic( 恐慌) and make you too nervous to think clearly. Tell yourself to be patient and believe that nothing is impossible.
Secondly, use the emergency(急救) call inside the elevator or your mobile phone to let people outside know you are stuck in the elevator. There is an emergency call on the wall of each elevator. You may use your mobile phone to give light and find it. The phone number can be found around it.
Thirdly, putting up messages on Wechat is also a good idea to allow more people to find you are in need of help. If help hasn't come, knock the door to get attention from other people in the building.
Fourthly, move less and try to relax. Even if the workers have known your situation, it may take them a long time to repair the elevator and bring you back to safety. Instead of keeping moving all the time, you are advised to keep still and relax yourself as much as possible, or you will make yourself tired out. Make sure that you are fine when the door is open.

The expired(过期的) meat news has seriously cut down the sales and name of western fast food in China. But Arthur Han, an office worker, says that now is the best time to eat at McDonald's in China because they are paying more attention to food safety at the moment.
Mr. Han says he hardly ever eats at McDonald's, whose image(形象) for cleanliness and quality was shaken last month by a television report. It showed McDonald's and several other western fast-food companies of using a supplier(供应商) that sold expired meat.
McDonald's said this month something worst happened. Shanghai government closed down the factory of Shanghai Husi Food Co, which was the supplier of McDonalds. It badly influenced the sales of McDonald's.
Yum said its brands KFC and Pizza Hut also saw sales drop at first, adding that if the falling continues, it could have a really bad effect. But experts say that, whatever the effect on western brands, it is difficult for local companies to do better in fast food production.
"Food safety is not just something that affects McDonald's and KFC, they are just the biggest problem for all the food companies, "says Torsten Stocker, an officer from a famous food company. "If it's a problem they are facing, why would others be any different?"
Many diners seem to realize that western brands are not the only ones with a problem," Wang Lan, a young office worker, eating lunch at a local fast-food, said this week. As for food safety, he said the best way was not to pay attention to it.
88. What does Arthur Han think of eating at McDonald's in China now?
89. What badly influenced the sales of McDonald's?
90. What did Wang Lan think of fast food safety?

Boys and girls,
Recently some blood banks across the country are reported to be in short supply of blood.
Some people hold the wrong idea that donating blood does harm to the donor’s health. But the truth is that when a small amount of blood is taken out, the body will make a quickadjustment to work normally.
As we know, donating blood is of great importance. Blood is important to patients, without which many can't survive. Among young people like us, donating blood is a social responsibility. We high school students, who have a better understanding of medical knowledge should set a good example for other people.
From now on our school will hold a series of activities to explain the benefits of donating blood. Donate now and save a life！
